A human, yet no-nonsense approach.
Divorcement mediation
When “life partners” separate, it can be a significant event that brings a lot of emotions to the surface. Whether the partners are married under prenuptial agreements or have nothing formalized, there is a lot to arrange.
This is especially true when there are (minor) children involved. Because once a father or mother, always a father or mother, no matter what happens. The children certainly did not ask for the divorce, and you want to prevent them from being caught between two worlds. How do you manage that?
Suddenly, a lot is coming your way. Think of the agreement with a parenting plan and everything that comes with it. But also uncertain finances, alimony, division of debts and assets, housing, and much more. All of this needs to be handled properly, often while emotions are still running high.
Skills of the family mediator
Family mediation in general, and divorce mediation in particular, requires additional knowledge and skills from the mediator. This is not only in the area of (tax) regulations but also in terms of psychological knowledge regarding the effects on the parties involved and their surroundings, especially the children.
The quality management of the Mediation Federation Netherlands (MfN) has a separate quality assessment for training programs focused on family mediation. Mediators who have successfully completed an accredited training program receive a public notation in the MfN register. It goes without saying that I have completed such a program and am qualified for divorces.

Hoe werkt het?
1.
Mediation as a solution for conflicts
The process usually begins with a non-binding introductory meeting. Mark is happy to come to your home. It is important to experience whether you have a connection and if there is a basis of trust. Trust among all parties is essential, as sensitive matters are discussed.
Mark assesses the situation. Are there children involved? Is there a business, a property, or other special circumstances?
2.
During the Conversation
A lot of topics come up during the discussions. What debts or assets are there, and who gets what? If children are involved, there needs to be a parenting plan. Where will the children live? When and for how long will they go on vacation, and with which parent? And what exactly is the situation with alimony?
Mark creates a safe environment; there must be space to express all emotions. Ultimately, fair and sustainable solutions need to be found, and it is important that you have discussed everything.
3.
The legal documents
Once the substantive discussions are completed, Mark will draft the agreement. The new arrangements will then be put in writing. The parenting plan is also included in this.
When all parties have agreed, the documents will be sent to the lawyer. The lawyer will check the legal correctness before the documents can be submitted to the court.
4.
Aftercare
After signing the final documents, the process is complete, and you can be sure that everything is properly documented. Once the divorce is finalized, the real processing begins.
However, this can be quite significant. Perhaps your living situation has changed, or you have mutual friends? It’s a new situation. Therefore, Mark offers the necessary aftercare. New questions may arise. Mark is here for you!

May I introduce myself?
My name is Mark de Krosse… nice to meet you! In 2019, I decided to pursue formal training as a mediator so that I could work as an MfN-registered mediator. The training, combined with over 25 years of experience as a mediator and entrepreneur/managing director in a large family business, provided me with the foundation to continue my journey as a mediator.
In addition to the general mediation training, I have also completed specialized courses in divorce mediation, family mediation, and labor mediation. The combination of experience and education enables me to tackle various and complex mediations.
Throughout my career, I have dealt with all kinds of conflicts, both small and large. Most conflicts were within the context of business families. Sometimes I was a party to the conflict, but most often, I was "invited to the table" to help find a solution. It always feels very rewarding when that succeeds, and it made me want to do more. Ultimately, the step to work as an MfN-registered mediator was not that big.

Parenting plan
When children are involved in a divorce, a parenting plan is of great importance. This document serves as a comprehensive set of agreements between the parents, aimed at systematically organizing the care and upbringing of their children.
It covers various aspects, ranging from the children’s living arrangements and holiday schedules to the division of parental responsibilities.
It also specifies how decisions regarding health, education, and other aspects of the child’s life will be made. Additionally, agreements regarding child support are included.
The parenting plan acts as a guideline, helping parents create a stable environment for their children. Over time, the plan can be adjusted based on changes in the child’s or the parent(s)’ situation.
This plan also serves as a legal document in case of disputes. Don’t take risks; contact Mark, the professional guidance.
Why divorce with help of a mediator?
A divorce is quite significant. You are dealing with many issues at once and need to make new arrangements. Involving a mediator can be particularly valuable. This creates structure and ensures a careful resolution of all matters. Here are the advantages:
✓ The costs of a mediator are lower than those of a lawyer.
✓ A mediation process often consists of just three to five two-hour sessions, allowing for a quick resolution. A (contentious) divorce through lawyers can take months in comparison.
✓ Mediation often helps improve the relationship between the parties involved, unlike a lawsuit.
✓ The costs of mediation are shared by both parties (usually each pays half). Read more about the costs here.
If you are striving for fair and sustainable solutions and find it important that nothing is overlooked, involving a mediator is a wise choice.
A skilled mediator with the right credentials.
